G751JT - Creaking along right side of laptop; help finding screws to fix?

BRSxIgnition
Level 9
On my G751JT-CH71, the right side of the palmrest/keyboard area creaks with any amount of force applied. It is audible and is the only real structural flaw I have found with this laptop, so I'd like to fix it if I decide to keep my machine.

XoticPC removed the keyboard panel in their video review for the G751 - which I've linked below - and only referenced "doing all the work beforehand" + 4 cables that need to be unplugged underneath it. They do not show which screws need to be undone in order to be able to remove/adjust the panel, which is what I need to do in order to apply tape or even glue to stop the creaking.



If anyone could help with finding me what screws to undo in order to be able to apply this fix, it would be very much appreciated.

PS: This would also help anyone who wants to change the pre-installed RAM at any point as well.

I have fixed my issue. Unclipping and reclipping the board stopped the creaking.
